Harbaugh Brothers Discussed J.J. McCarthy Trade

Jim Harbaugh confirmed he had positive conversations with his brother John about J.J. McCarthy before the Giants traded for the quarterback. "I mean, John called me and asked me," Jim told reporters. "I said, you know, John, I love you. I love J.J."

McCarthy struggled in Minnesota but excelled under Jim at Michigan, leading to speculation he may perform better with John in New York. "Maybe McCarthy responds better to the Harbaugh rah-rah style," the report suggests, noting the trade could provide the fresh start McCarthy needed. sport-newz.biz
